The song's original 15-minute version was reduced to a six-minute track for the release of 30. A favourite among fans and critics alike, it reached the top 10 in various countries despite not seeing a commercial single release.

Hello again. Apologies for the random message. I was wondering if you had the time to help with my current peer review. The article is about an obscure Spanish-language extended play by Rosanna Tavarez, who used the stage name Chana, and I am currently on the fence on if it would be appropriate or ready for a FAC so I want to get as much feedback as possible. However, the peer review has been open for several weeks now without any feedback so I would greatly appreciate it, but I completely understand if you do not have the time or interest. Hope you are having a great start to your month! Aoba47 ( talk) 03:52, 8 December 2022 (UTC)
Peace is a state of balance and understanding in yourself and between others, where respect is gained by the acceptance of differences, tolerance persists, conflicts are resolved through dialog, peoples rights are respected and their voices are heard, and everyone is at their highest point of serenity without social tension.

Coming to say the same: congrats to the new FA, and thank you today for Like I'm Gonna Lose You, "about Meghan Trainor's song "Like I'm Gonna Lose You", which features guest vocals from John Legend. She almost didn't include it on her debut major-label studio album until being convinced otherwise by her uncle. When it was ultimately released as its fourth single, it revitalized the album's commercial momentum and became Trainor's third top-10 single from it, also reaching number one in Australia, New Zealand, and Poland."!

So ends the first round of the 2023 WikiCup. Everyone with a positive score moved on to Round 2, with 54 contestants qualifying. The top scorers in Round 1 were:
The top sixteen contestants at the end of Round 1 had all scored over 300 points; these included

Thebiguglyalien,
Sammi Brie,
Trainsandotherthings,
Lee Vilenski,
Juxlos,
Unexpectedlydian,
SounderBruce,
Kosack,
BennyOnTheLoose and
PCN02WPS. It was a high-scoring start to the competition.
These contestants, like all the others, now have to start again from scratch. The first round finished on February 26.

The song's original 15-minute version was reduced to a six-minute track for the release of 30. A favourite among fans and critics alike, it reached the top 10 in various countries despite not seeing a commercial single release. The song was also showcased in an acclaimed performance at the Brit Awards this year."! -- Gerda Arendt ( talk) 10:33, 19 November 2022 (UTC)

Hello again. Apologies for the random message. I was wondering if you had the time to help with my current peer review. The article is about an obscure Spanish-language extended play by Rosanna Tavarez, who used the stage name Chana, and I am currently on the fence on if it would be appropriate or ready for a FAC so I want to get as much feedback as possible. However, the peer review has been open for several weeks now without any feedback so I would greatly appreciate it, but I completely understand if you do not have the time or interest. Hope you are having a great start to your month! Aoba47 ( talk) 03:52, 8 December 2022 (UTC)
Peace is a state of balance and understanding in yourself and between others, where respect is gained by the acceptance of differences, tolerance persists, conflicts are resolved through dialog, peoples rights are respected and their voices are heard, and everyone is at their highest point of serenity without social tension.

Coming to say the same: congrats to the new FA, and thank you today for Like I'm Gonna Lose You, "about Meghan Trainor's song "Like I'm Gonna Lose You", which features guest vocals from John Legend. She almost didn't include it on her debut major-label studio album until being convinced otherwise by her uncle. When it was ultimately released as its fourth single, it revitalized the album's commercial momentum and became Trainor's third top-10 single from it, also reaching number one in Australia, New Zealand, and Poland."!

So ends the first round of the 2023 WikiCup. Everyone with a positive score moved on to Round 2, with 54 contestants qualifying. The top scorers in Round 1 were:
The top sixteen contestants at the end of Round 1 had all scored over 300 points; these included

Thebiguglyalien,
Sammi Brie,
Trainsandotherthings,
Lee Vilenski,

These contestants, like all the others, now have to start again from scratch. The first round finished on February 26. Remember that any content promoted after that date but before the start of Round 2 can be claimed in Round 2.
